(The following section was already provided in English and is included here for completeness.)

GENERAL

Applicability: These GT and all relevant legal regulations apply to all flights for which a Charter Contract was concluded between Aerox GmbH ("Broker") and a Charterer. The Charterer's general terms of business do not apply. Verbal agreements are not valid unless confirmed in writing.

Broker's Obligation: The Broker is obliged to provide the requested flight with a properly equipped and crewed aircraft. Any services beyond this must be agreed upon separately in writing. The Broker will only use the services of a Carrier (an aircraft operator with a valid AOC).

In-flight Regulations: Smoking may be prohibited on certain flights. The Carrier will serve drinks and food according to its standards. Animals may not be transported without the Carrier's express written permission. The Broker is entitled to replace the aircraft with another suitable one at any time.

Carrier's Discretion: The Carrier and the aircraft Captain have full discretion regarding the load, safety of the flight, landing locations, and all other operational matters. They have the right to refuse to carry any Passengers or luggage for safety reasons or if their behavior violates regulations. The Charterer is not entitled to terminate the contract in such cases, and any additional costs are to be borne by the Charterer. The Broker is not liable for any losses arising from such decisions.

SCHEDULE AND NONPERFORMANCE DELAY VARIATIONS AND DIVERSIONS

Schedule: The times specified in the schedule are subject to change and are approximate estimations. The Carrier is entitled to deviate from the schedule if necessary.

Cancellation/Delay by Carrier: The Carrier may cancel or delay a flight without liability for compensation if the flight cannot be performed due to causes beyond its control, such as strikes, war, or Force Majeure events. In such cases, the Broker's obligation is limited to refunding the agreed charter price for the cancelled flight.

Force Majeure: Force Majeure refers to unforeseeable and unavoidable events outside the control of the Broker and Carrier (e.g., wars, natural disasters).

Broker's Responsibility for Delays: In case of a delay for which the Broker is responsible, the Broker is entitled to arrange alternative transport or accommodation for the Passengers. The Broker is only liable for additional costs if it has acted with willful intent or gross negligence.

Charterer's Delay: If the flight is prevented or delayed by the Charterer or the Passengers (e.g., late arrival of luggage), the Charterer is liable for any additional costs. The Broker is entitled to cancel the flight in such cases without being obliged to provide a later flight. The Charterer must reimburse the Broker for all additional costs incurred.

Inability to Complete a Flight: If a flight cannot be completed for reasons beyond the control of either party, the Broker is only obligated to refund the portion of the price corresponding to the uncompleted part of the flight.

CHARTER PRICE AND PAYMENT CONDITIONS

Charter Price: The Charter Price is the amount payable to the Broker and includes expenses for operation, crew, insurance, and standard airport fees.

Exclusions: The Charter Price does not include costs for transport to/from airports, customs inspections, or additional expenses resulting from changes requested by the Charterer.

Price Adjustments: The Broker is entitled to increase the Charter Price to account for changes in operating costs (e.g., fuel, taxes, exchange rates).

Payment: The Charter Price is payable according to the invoice. All payments must be transferred to the respective account without any deductions.

OBLIGATIONS, LIABILITIES AND INSURANCES

Charterer's Obligations: The Charterer is liable for executing the Charter Contract and for any damage caused by its representatives or Passengers. The Charterer must inform the Broker of any significant incidents and provide all necessary information for the flight in a timely manner. The Charterer is responsible for ensuring that all Passengers have the necessary travel documents.

Broker's Liability: The Broker is liable only under the conditions set forth herein. The Broker is not liable for any damage caused by the performance or non-performance of any Carrier. Under no circumstances is the Broker liable for consequential damage, indirect claims, or penalties. The liability is also excluded in cases of Force Majeure, damage caused by third parties, technical defects, or delays caused by the Passengers.

Luggage: The Broker is not liable for the loss of or damage to fragile, perishable, or valuable goods (e.g., jewelry, documents) in a Passenger's luggage. The Charterer is liable for any damage caused by items in their luggage.

TERMINATION AND CANCELLATION

Broker's Right to Terminate: The Broker has the right to terminate the contract with immediate effect for compelling reasons, such as the late arrival of Passengers, the Charterer's failure to pay, or the commencement of insolvency proceedings.

Cancellation by Charterer: The Charterer may cancel the flight at any time, but cancellation fees as stipulated in the contract will become payable immediately.
